In the realm of RSS, we always refrain from glorifying personalities. Such actions can be detrimental to the organization’s culture. However, when a video clip about this dedicated RSS volunteer Babu Devadiga began circulating in some WhatsApp groups, I felt compelled to share his swayamsevakathva (volunteerism), which could inspire many. I worked with him closely for almost a decade in that region. Shri Babu Devadiga, affectionately known as Babanna, hailed from Bramhavara in Udupi. For decades, he remained a steadfast Sangh Karyakartha (RSS functionary), serving selflessly as the long-time Jilla Karyavah (District secretary) of Udupi district. Babanna’s humble origins came from a small community. He worked as a clerk in a Christian missionary school. His personal life reflected courage and conviction, including his decision to marry across castes at a time when such choices were rare. His life was characterized by extraordinary commitment. For nearly four decades, he traveled 20-25 days a month across the villages of Udupi, tirelessly nurturing RSS work at the grassroots level. He may have visited thousands of families. He had friends from all walks of life, including different castes, faiths, and economic backgrounds. Despite battling multiple co-morbidities for the past decade, his mind and heart remained deeply rooted in RSS and other social activities in the town. Such was his devotion that on his very last day, he insisted on making his Gurudakshina (offering a portion of our earnings to the well-being of society, which all RSS volunteers do every year on the auspicious day of Guru Purnima). With the support of his daughter, he made this offering in the morning, and by evening, he peacefully departed from this world. A Life of Dedication - Babanna was truly the epitome of a samarpith swayamsevak (dedicated social worker). He served with humility and dedication until his final breath. Throughout his over five decades in public life, he never complained about anyone or anything, regardless of life’s challenges. His life remains a shining example of tyag (sacrifice), tapasya (penance), and unwavering commitment to the ideals of the Sangh.
